We're pleased to yet again announce the next prize being given away to our most appreciated supporters, the Kitelife Subscribers... For roughly 10 cents per day they play a major role in keeping KL growing in every way.

This is a set of three Cherry Bomb sport kite packages (complete with line and straps) from New Tech Kites, roughly a $150 value ($50 each), all going to one winner!

A very capable little kite, the Cherry Bomb is VERY durable, great for beginners, and I've even been able to pull off some pretty solid (albeit undersized) precision and trick flying with these. :kid_devlish:

You can stack 'em, keep in the bag for nearby novices, give away to a kid in need, or play with 'em yourself. <grin>

All--Right!!

This is going to be mine...and "NO" kids are getting them...except me! I want to learn how to stack, and this will be my big chance (maybe MrDenny will teach me, after his head wound heals from where I hit him with my Rev. handle :kid_devlish: )...OR...

...maybe...Baloo and I and someone else can pool our numbers together and split the winnings!! heehee! :kid_devlish: :kid_devlish:

Thanks JB!!
Keep It Up!

My son has a Cherry Bomb. Has flown the snot out of it for the past four years... he's graduated to better kites but always pulls that one out of the bag. Lots of fun. And flying them in a stack would be a blast.

I actually put a $25 piece on the tail and was able to do Jacob's Ladder, Cascade and some other cool stuff.

It's not a trick monster, but is very well rounded for a little beginner kite. :kid_devlish:

Yes, yes... Sorry, a 25 cent piece. LOL

I was still a little wind-blown from the weekend. :kid_devlish:
